AT regular meeting Of Allison
Post, g. "A. r., held last Friday
evening, a resolution favoring the
Logan pension bill was unanimously
adopted. 1t provides that all SOL
diers shall receive pension of SIS
per month and that an honorable

proof of service.
THE REPUBLICAN enjoyed very
pleasant call from Chas. Ashton,
editor Of the GHthrian, w. ii.
Stiles, county attorney, and w. ii.
Hyzer, all of Guthrie Center, yester-
day. The gentlemen were IN the
city for the purpose of investigating
the system of city water works,
with which they were well pleased.
IT PAYs.-Last week two local
notices were placed in these columns
and ordered to remain till notice
was given to discontinue. The re.
suit was that before they could be
inserted a second time the inquirers
received the desired information and
ordered the notices taken out. Such
is the proof OF the advantages OF
advertising.
PERsoNAL.--The many friends of
Miss Ella NJ. Stcarns will be pleased
to know that she has escaped the ever
imminent dangers of life in the wild
west, having returned from her visit
at Wahoo, Sanders county, Nebr.
The lady recounts with vivid aud
graphic description the scenes Of the
frontier, and is delighted to again
set foot in peaceful Iowa.
Miss Emma Smart, n dressmaker
from California, has arrived at this
place to visit this summer and fall
with her cousin, ii. b. Owens, and
family. While here she will do
sewing either by the day or by the
job. She is recommended to be an
excellent dressmaker, and the Audi.
bon ladies would, no doubt, do well
10 secure ner services.
NEr.-The supper given by the
ladies ofthe Presbyterian church, in
the Barbee building last Thursday
night, was very nicely gotten up,
and was well patronized. The net
receipts we've $3.50, which is de-
cidedly complimentary to the ladies'
enterprise, when it is remembered
there were no catch penny affairs
run i'll connection herewith.
Evan Davis and Charley Yates
were down from Manila, the first
Of the week, gathering inspiration
from a live town. The railroad
company has put in switch ut that
station, and what with the base ball
club and the mineral spring the citi.
zens are somewhat elated. They
say that these advantages are more
than Chicago had to begin with.
DR.. Jewell, who has recently To-
Gated at Viola Center, is meeting
with hearty encouragement in the
way of growing practice, and all
who have had occasion to employ
him speak in the highest terms of
his skill and gentcel manner. He
will soon build an office at the Cen.
ter, thus giving evidence OF the ma
terial success with which he Is
meeting.
Prof. Foster says that this is the
last of a series of dry seasons;
that the next four or five sea.
sons will be of ordinary humidity.
The eastern states, however, he says
will continue to suffer from an In
creasing tendency to drouth. East.
ern Iowa will take especial cheer
from their promise of more rain, for
it is in the counties thus located that
the greatest damage has resulted.
THE REPUBLICAN has prophesied
a return to Iowa Of settlers in Kan
sas, Nebraska and other western states
where they have met only failure
and disappointment. The Corning
Free Press is in receipt of letters
from parties in those states asking
for information as to the renting of
farms and dwellings. Iowa is the
peerless state, and one year with
another her crops are unequalled.

ereign told with stress that would
make an ordinary individuals back
ache, how he arose every morning
at 4 o'clock to toll in his garden to
raise few vegetables that he might
keep the wolf from the door. We
are credibly informed that he has
not cultivated foot of ground this
season and that he is as much
stranger to garden tools as to truth.
John Lovelace returned Saturday
evening from fortnight's tour
through Dakota and northwestern
Iowa. At lreton, Sioux county,
he met and enjoyed a very pleasant
visit with Dan X. Stuart. Mr..
Lovelacc regards the territory there
abouts as the finest part of tho do.
